Reply to comment by polardani in AMA Session: Polar week Q&A!! We're the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS), let’s talk about life and science in the polar regions. Ask Us Anything! by APECS_Polarscience

many stations (both Arctic and Antarctic) will have those who work in food preparation, logistics and medicine - so not research orientated. Some of the big employers would be the British Antarctic Survey in the UK or the National Science Foundation in the US (https://www.nsf.gov/geo/opp/opportun.jsp) so there are options for non research positions.

Some organisations have also hired people to work on social media and communications to bring these environments closer to the public :)
